You may remember (if you've been reading 'Steve's first time Grow Log') that I had 2 cakes that had too much water in them. One of the cakes I burried in the garden, but the other one, I took the top half out and tried to birth it. With the remaining half, still in the bottom of the jar, I constructed the BmT.

To construct the BmT you will need - 1 jar with half a cake in it - 1 freezer bag

All you do is put the freezer bag over the opened jar. Simple.

When I did this, I had no intention of it really doing anything, but did it more because I couldn't bring myself to throw the cake away. It seems to be working though, and I have had no contams. Here are some pics.

Notice the pin in the bottom picture. This is the first of all my cakes to pin.

Yeah hehe...good job. Hope it does well. So the jar is just sitting opened in a bag, right? I would think once you have some pins, just open it once a day to mist and open a few times a day to fan a bit.

To be honest, I'm not even gonna bother doing that. I'm just gonna let it be and see what happens. I do open everynow and then for air exchange, and I put water in it a few times and poured it back out after a few hours.

Plain softwood sawdust with WBS. Not a good substrate for cubensis but it worked anyway! Substrate volume was 500ml. CO2 can leave the "growpot" through the opening you will discover.
If you replace the teapot with a plastic bag like you did, it really is a bankrupt mans terrarium.
Keep on growing
